Totally agree. We have enough pieces to start being competitive with a proper #1 goaltender. We still have pieces to add (consistent secondary scoring and a rugged Regehr-style D would be my top "wants"). But with a solid #1 GK, the team's confidence will skyrocket. And waiting for Gilles would waste important years of JG/SM/SB etc...
Pinder was saying something similar to your argument last night on Overtime. Totally agree with you both!
